How do you paste in forum?

Is pasting possible in the forums?  Doesn't work for me

I find most featurs don't work but some seem to be post quantity dependant.
 
In the UDI forum using the same software system, the advanced editor (more reply options) has the upload files and ability to paste them into the posting box.

There was some previous discussion about this problem in this thread.  Folks using Firefox and Chrome as their browser had no problems. Folks using Internet Explorer, did.

I use various browsers and it doesn't seem to matter which one. Sometimes the quoting feature works in any browser and sometimes it doesn't but it never worked for me in IE10, IE11, Chrome android, or Chrome Windows until recently and then only about half the time.
 
Notice this post with quoting? Notice my last one without? Same browser (Chrome) and same click sequence.

Today IE11 is allowing me to quote text but not other posts.

This never worked for me until a few months ago.
 
Just the luck of the draw and it seems, posting quantity.
